£170.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A honeyed straw colour in the glass; rich and inviting with a refined and refreshing balance on the palate. Warm toasted notes with dessert pears and white peach rounding out the finish, a nod to spending over five years on lees. Drinking well now, with ageing potential for 10-12 years after vintage.

Serve
Goes brilliantly with seafood dishes and tapas, as an indulgent aside to a fish & chip supper, or simply as part of celebrating those special moments in life.

Laurel Rondo Rosé 2023 (6 Bottles) Driffield, East Yorkshire, England

£95.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This deliciously refreshing rosé made from our Rondo grape brings to mind the Great British Summertime.

Our rosé presents aromas of fresh strawberries and pomegranate seeds.

Flavours of ripe red cherries, cranberries and a hint of marzipan fill the mouth.

A perfect accompaniment to sweet and savoury dishes alike, or even on its own in the sunshine.

Nutbourne Sussex Reserve 2022 (6 Magnum Bottles) Pulborough, West Sussex, England

£250.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This “field blend” wine showcases the unique terroir of Nutbourne - combining the soil, the geography and the climate of our special corner of West Sussex. There is no other wine in the world to replicate it.

With tremendous freshness and wild fruit flavours, it is crisp, dry, and aromatic, combining our old vine Riesling-style German varietals with Pinot Noir.

Perfect to drink on its own but also has enough zing to stand up to spicy foods, lighter game birds or a wholesome fish pie.

The art: Just as Nutbourne wines are only made from grapes grown on the estate, every bottle features Bridget Gladwin’s paintings. This painting depicts the striking double-curtain trellising system in Winter. The individual vine stands as a sculpture, a thing of beauty and nobility in its own right.

Llanerch Hâf Sweet White (6 Bottles) Pontyclun, Vale of Glamorgan, Wales

£120.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Llanerch's Hâf, Welsh for 'Summer', is a delightful tribute to the sunniest season. Crafted from the luscious Richensteiner grape, this wine's fermentation is meticulously halted early to preserve its natural sweetness.

On the nose, it offers an enchanting bouquet of sweet peach,ripe apricots, and a whisper of orange blossom. The palate isa gentle dance of low acidity, combining the richness of stone fruits with the playful taste of candied apple. Concluding with a medium finish, Hâf is the quintessential companion for a serene summer evening, offering a taste of easygoing sweetness that’s perfect for relaxation or pairing with light, summery dishes.
